Join us on 26 November for an ANZ-LCNF webinar presented by Melany Sommerville, exploring Voluntary Assisted Dying in Lung Cancer: What Nurses Need to Know.

Have you ever had questions about voluntary assisted dying, what the process involves, what you can and can’t say, or what support is available for patients and families?

With a growing number of people with cancer choosing VAD, nurses need to understand how the process works in practice and how to provide safe, informed and compassionate support. This session will cover key aspects of VAD legislation, the practical steps involved, the role of the VAD coordinator, and how nurses can respond confidently when patients raise questions or need support.
